My thoughts on “bad” situations for the most part is that always something good will come of it. For example, this whole money transfer pain in the ass has gotten Andy onto some new forums and connected with some really nice and intelligent people. For me, this theory applies to everything except death. Nothing good [...]

I love it when a plan comes together

I’m sitting in front of my computer screen knowing that I should be putting files in their proper places from before I wiped my hard drive clean. I don’t wanna.
What I do want to do is eat a chocolate cake with toffee bits followed by a triple venti carmel macciado. Both things are not [...]

My computer is semi repaired.
Oh mother internet, how I’ve missed you.

Thanks to everyone for the offers of help. The money transfer situation is under control with help from some amazingly nice strangers from the 2+2 forums, and friends of friends. Andy is slowly relaxing into the mellow and easygoing guy that I’m used to seeing.

Does anyone know any trustworthy Canadians (or any other country for that matter) that could transfer money out of our Netteller account, into theirs and back into our U.S. account? I am pretty sure that there is nothing illegal in transferring the money in this way. There would be a commission for anyone that could [...]

I am skipping the regular gym today and going to the rock climbing gym.
Is that not the most exciting thing you’ve heard in ages?
For various reasons (a DEEP, DEEP tissue massage and too much weight lifting), I feel like I’ve been politely beat up. Surprisingly enough, alcohol poisoning isn’t in the list of reasons. Since [...]

One of the funniest things said by my husband last night

While Nova was showing me a $1400 pair of shoes on the Nordstrom website, made out of stingrays (one for each shoe). Andy said, “Awwww, stingrays are nice….well….except for that one.”
I love that guy.
(Since time has passed and the connection between stingray death and Steve Irwin may be lost, let me put it together again. [...]

My computer is sick and won’t boot. Fortunately, there seems to be a laptop in every room of this house (and a tofu chicken in every pot).
We have been looking into economic citizenship and swiss bank accounts. How sexy is that. Are these things I shouldn’t be mentioning to the public? Am I in a [...]

I need new gym shoes.

I just ate half a large pizza and am drinking a stiff vodka and gingerale. In my defense, I did work out this morning so the bad decisions in the second half of the day hopefully can be tempered by that. The New England vs. Indiana playoff game is on the tv. Don’t tell Andy, [...]

Now, go take on the day…

I didn’t really want to tell the Dr. Laura story because then I would have to admit to you all that I listen to Dr. Laura. Actually, have listened to Dr. Laura for the last fifteen years. Not only have I and do I listen to her, I like her show. I disagree with most [...]

Instead of going to the gym, I’m sitting on the couch watching videos of cute cats.
I can’t post the story of Dr. Laura until Andy gets the voice mail message off of his phone. I mean really the story wouldn’t be complete without the audio clip.

Living with Novabella is a laugh riot a minute. We’ve been working out every day, eating delicious food and having crazy adventures. Andy has been playing poker with a new strategy so baseball research is on hold for a few weeks. There’s more bad news on the anti internet gambling bill that moves us a [...]

My husband is back from Vegas and in his rightful place at my side at Nova Bella’s house in San Diego.
All is right with the world.

I have a new niece. Elizabeth Mary, born at 7:40 this morning.
Also, my mom is having a fantastic time in San Diego and wants to move here. Andy is still in Vegas. He’ll be here on Monday. I got a sassy new haircut and am spending most of the time at the gym or [...]

2006 New Year’s 80’s costume bash

2006 New Year’s 80’s costume bash Originally uploaded by cindigodotcom.
We made it to the 80’s themed New Year’s Eve party. Although there wasn’t enough hairspray, toothpaste or gel to make my hair into a mohawk, I think we did alright.
It felt like coming home, putting on the fingerless gloves, jelly bracelets and black raccoon eye [...]
